Hu Hai's slap woke the soldier up from his unconscious state. Although his face was pale when he came back to his senses, he was no longer as frightened as before. As if he had been appointed, he first gave a slight salute to Zhang Han, and then to Hu Hai. He said: "To tell you what my lord, the villain's name is Zhu Erniu, and the arrow just now was shot by the villain."
Although many of the Imperial Guards who followed Hu Hai on his eastward tour had seen Hu Hai, the few Imperial Guard soldiers guarding the gate of the camp had never seen Hu Hai. Naturally, they did not know that the person in front of them was His Majesty the Emperor.
Zhu Erniu had already accepted his fate. He, a small soldier, offended Lang Zhongling and almost shot him to death. Zhang Han would not let him go. The reason why he answered Hu Hai's words was just Because I saw Hu Hai and Zhang Han coming together.
Just at this moment, the sound of horse hooves came from far and near in the camp, and Wang Gan led his people to rush over.
"The last general, Wang Qian, didn't know that the lieutenant ordered you to come here. I hope you will forgive me!" Wang Qian got off his horse and knelt on one knee and said. As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Qian saw Hu Hai standing not far from Zhang Han.
Wang Qian's expression was very exciting at this time. He was stunned at first, then surprised, then confused, then he woke up, his expression changed and he shouted sternly: "You guys..."
"Ahem!" Seeing Wang Gan's actions, Hu Hai coughed twice and interrupted Wang Gan's words: "General Wang is very good at running the army." He winked at Wang Gan.
Wang Qian was stunned for a moment when he heard Hu Hai's words. Then he saw Hu Hai winking at him and immediately realized that His Majesty didn't want him to call out his identity. Although he was puzzled, he still cooperated and said: "Your Majesty... Your Majesty, thank you." ! Sir, please come inside."
I’m used to calling you Your Majesty, but now I’m calling you Your Majesty! After hearing this, Hu Hai thought, why don’t you call me Grandpa Bi?
"Let's wait until the weak old man comes over, and then we can go in together."
"Here!"
After a while, Dun Rui and the twelve personal guards drove the carriage over.
Wang Qian stepped forward and greeted Dunruo with courtesy, but he was not surprised at all by Long Ba and others. In his opinion, Long Ba and others must be the maids serving His Majesty, and the other eight sturdy men were obviously palace guards. .
Before entering the camp, Hu Hai smiled and said to Zhu Erniu: "You are very good, well, your archery skills are even better."
Zhu Erniu also knew from Wang Gan's performance that the person in front of him was definitely a high official, and Master Zhang was very respectful to him. When he heard Hu Hai's words, he smiled cautiously and honestly.
"Haha, don't worry, no one will punish you for what you did before. Do your best!"
Hu Hai smiled and got into the carriage with Dun Rui. This time it was Wang Gan who drove the carriage, and Zhang Han was liberated.
Arriving at Wang Qian's tent, before Wang Qian could speak, Hu Hai asked Wang Qian to take Dunrui to rest. After all, Dunrui was old and was extremely exhausted from running all the way.
Only Hu Hai, Zhang Han, Long Ba and other twelve people were left in the big tent, all of whom were guarding outside the big tent.
"Zhang Aiqing, tell me what the current military system of the Forbidden Army is like?"
Although he didn't know why Hu Hai asked him about the military system of the Forbidden Army at this time, Zhang Han immediately answered,
"I obey the decree! Your Majesty, the current organization of the Forbidden Army is the same as that of our Great Qin. Our Great Qin's soldiers are now divided into four types, infantry, cavalry, chariot soldiers and ship soldiers. There are no ship soldiers in the Forbidden Army now. For infantry, cavalry and chariots.
In the military system of our Qin Dynasty, the infantry has six levels from low to high: five-man corps, with one corps leader; second corps, with one corps leader; fifth corps, with one commander; There is one general for one hundred people; there is one leader for five hundred people; there is one leader for two to five hundred people for one thousand people; the leader for two to five hundred people can also be called "thousand people";
In wartime, the infantry is based on the six-level system and adds two systems of units and two units. Five thousand people are divided into one unit, with one military lord; five units are divided into one unit, with one captain; several units are led by one general, and the general
Above them are the generals appointed by His Majesty to command the troops.
In addition, military generals at all levels have direct bodyguards who plant trees for 10% of the troops under their command, that is, a 500-member commander has 50 bodyguards, and a military prince has 500 bodyguards.
The cavalry army is composed of three cavalry groups, with three groups in one column and one column, thirty groups of one hundred cavalry in one column, and six chariots. All formations of more than a hundred people are synchronized.
Nowadays, the infantry, cavalry and chariot troops of our Great Qin are all divided into armies. During war, these three armies fight together. If a single chariot troop fights alone, then every eight chariots will be divided into one side (i.e. one line), and two will be divided into sixteen units.
As one group, four groups of sixty-four are multiplied into one team.
If there is an infantry unit fighting together, then one chariot, three armored soldiers, and eight infantry make up a group, six chariots form a group, and eighteen chariots plus one command chariot form a team. If chariots and cavalry
When fighting together, there are six chariots in a row!
Your Majesty, this is our current military system in Great Qin. I wonder why Your Majesty suddenly asked about this matter?"
Zhang Han spoke in detail, but Hu Hai was very confused.
"Zhang Aiqing, I want to cancel the formation of chariots and soldiers in the imperial army and the prisoners who are about to form an army. I wonder what Aiqing thinks?" Hu Hai thought for a while and said.
"Back to Your Majesty, now chariot soldiers account for very little in our Da Qin army. Chariots are expensive to build, so I think this is feasible. I wonder how your majesty wants to arrange the chariot soldiers?" Zhang Han obviously didn't think highly of chariot soldiers either, so he simply said
Agree with Hu Hai’s opinion.
"All the chariots and soldiers can be converted into infantry and cavalry, and all the horses used in the chariots can be used to equip the cavalry."
"Your Majesty, Holy Might!"
Originally, Hu Hai wanted to change the military system and use the squad, platoon, company, battalion, regiment, and division system of later generations, but after just hearing Zhang Han's introduction, he still didn't say it after thinking about it. Now he wants to change the general system.
If not, it will cause confusion.
After all, this change would turn many low-level officers such as corps commanders, commanders, commanders, and generals into small soldiers, which would not be conducive to his control of the army. So he decided to wait and see.
"Your Majesty, although our Great Qin Cavalry has formed an army on its own, the cavalry mainly uses crossbows and other weapons to cooperate with the infantry and chariots in combat, and cannot charge into battle alone. If your Majesty wants to increase the number of cavalry soldiers, you should think twice.
and do;
And our Great Qin Infantry Army is unparalleled in the world. Even before the Six Kingdoms were destroyed, the phalanx of Wei soldiers was far inferior to our Qin Army's infantry. Our Great Qin Infantry's unique heavy-armored infantry swept across the Six Kingdoms.
No one can defeat him." Zhang Han thought for a while and said to Hu Hai.
"I have my own thoughts about the cavalry. From now on, the cavalry will definitely be the sharp edge of our Qin Dynasty. Zhang Aiqing doesn't need to worry. But what are these heavy armored infantry? Are there any in our imperial army?" Hu Hai asked with a sudden move in his heart after hearing Zhang Han's words.
Although Zhang Han was puzzled when he heard that Hu Hai valued the cavalry so much, he did not dare to ask any more questions.
"Your Majesty, the heavy armored infantry of our Great Qin Dynasty can only be used by strong men eight feet tall. They are all men with great strength who can lift a thousand kilograms. Their heads, faces and whole bodies are covered with fine iron armor. This fine iron heavy armor weighs more than a hundred
They all hold giant blades measuring one foot or three feet. There are only ten thousand heavy-armored infantry in our imperial army!"
After hearing Zhang Han's words, Hu Hai's mind immediately pictured a scene of a large number of infantrymen covered in heavy black armor, holding machetes one or two meters long, rampaging on the battlefield.
It's just that the average person wearing this heavy armor, which weighs more than 100 kilograms, will be crushed directly to the ground. Even if he wears it, he probably won't be able to move, let alone go into battle with a machete one or two meters long to kill the enemy.
Where can we find so many huge and powerful men?
"Zhang Aiqing, although heavy armored infantry is powerful, its requirements for soldiers are too high. I'm afraid not everyone can wear this heavy armor, let alone fight in battle." Hu Hai said to Zhang Han.
"Your Majesty, Holy Might!"
"Although these heavy-armored infantry are rare, I think there are many people in our Great Qin Army who can wear such heavy armor. Aiqing needs to pay more attention to it in the future. Today I have another decision and want to hear Zhang Aiqing's opinion first."
"I obey the order!" Zhang Han was overjoyed when he heard that Hu Hai did not give up the heavy armored infantry.
"I will give the imperial army the name 'Hu Ben' in these days. From now on, the 'Hu Ben' army will be the personal army of all future emperors of our Great Qin, and shall be the first army of our Great Qin. What do you think, Ai Qing?"
